Thanks fatma, this dish turned out well. I blanched the palak, green chillies and salt. Then let it cool. In a pan I put jeera, cinnamon stick, onion, garlic and sauteed, added some chopped tomatoes and tomato puree. Let it cool and then pureed it with the palak. I heated oil in a pan and semi fried the paneer cubes and then added the pureed palak-onion mixture. I did not add water, and it turned out quite tasty. Thanks again.

Hi ..most of us are not aware of the fact that tomatoes when mixed with palak lead to stone in kidney....

gulafshan khan

Margaret Rebello

instead of boiling palak ,just light steam it and grind it to paste and you will have the nutritional value intact.

iqbal singh

baking of palak with paneer till 15 minutes will make the paneer into RUBBER !!

easy and quick recipe. a tip for not over cooking palak is i usually wash and coarsely chop spinach to blanch it.
spread the spinach on a glass plate .just sprinkle 2 tbspn of water for 2 bunches and keep in microwave high for 1-2 min .after this grind spinach along with sauteed onion and garlic ginger by this the spinach leaves are cooked and the green color is retained.
thanks

Excelent recipe and easy method i tried it was very very delicious only one worry is that too much cooking of
Palak i feel is loosing its vitamin

ruchi gupta

there is no " khatta element " in the recipe. either tomato or curd should be used.

KAMAL GILL

To take better advantages of palak when boiling do not add water because Plak already have lot of water in it.
